Everything and more

I can't thank the team enough for their work over the last few months.

From my initial enquiry to the final closure of the case, John Hooper Solicitors have been clear, professional, understanding, moved things forward promptly and for my case came within estimated budget range.

Meeting and working with Dominic and John, they both had a wonderful way of ensuring duty of care and advice to suit the circumstances. Thank you.

Thoughtful and supportive advice

5

Dominic has been a brilliant advisor and sounding board during what was a challenging and emotional legal process.

His advice was sound, his approach very clear and thoughtful and he acted as a great champion for me when I was faltering due to the aggression from the other side. I am so pleased that I listened to him as we achieved exactly the right result in the end.

Freedom at last

5

I would like to thank Dominic for his empathy, kindness, understanding and professionalism, during what has been the most devastating time of my life.

The journey of divorce was a very difficult one at times, but Dominic was always at the other end of the telephone to advise and reassure me. He was understanding of my situation from day one and was very thorough in his approach to my case.

I owe a big thanks thanks to Dominic and his team and would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone needing advice or representation within family law.

Got my life back!

5

After an unpleasant relationship breakdown there followed a series of claims for goods, furniture and finally a share of the equity in my property.
I found myself in totally unfamiliar territory
so I contacted John Hooper & Co after hearing good things about them.
They took on my case with ease and efficiency, with a friendly relaxed approach. John and Dominic were both a pleasure to communicate with, albeit remotely due to the current situation. Dominic has bought the case to a happy conclusion for me. I would recommend them in a heartbeat

Happy to recommend

5

Dear Dominic, A rather belated letter of thanks given that the divorce proceedings were finalised some time ago, but one which allows me a clear head with which to look back now that the dust has settled. Thankyou for your help throughout the 2 years or so it took to go from start to finish. A period of time which was difficult & your sage advice & calm reassurance was most welcome. As it stands it is unlikely I shall require your services again, but I will be more than happy to recommend you to others.

Well presented and organised

5

Dominic took my case off three previous solicitor accompanies as they all had let me down in representing me. Dominic listened to all the history of my case, understood, and most off all cared. Dominic works hard, gives good advice and even my barrister stated in court how well presented and organised his information for her to use. All of my ex wife's requests to the court was declined and this can only be to the hard work Dominic had done for me, I am forever greatful to this man and would highly recommend him to represent you.

Fantastic to work with

5

Dominic has been fantastic to work with. He has helped me thorough what has been one of the most difficult ties of my life. He is hard working, has passion and has been very fun to work with during a difficult time. He is a credit to the company. I would not like a repeat scenario, however if that were to ever be the case he would be my first point of contact.

The best representation

5

I would like to thank Dominic Lee for his excellent work, professionalism, kindness and understanding, especially on the most recent occasion at court. It was clear that Mr Lee had invested a considerable amount of time becoming fully up to date with my case, prior to a very short notice hearing. At a time when things were very stressful and anxious, Mr Lee took extra care to ensure that I felt at ease, that I was constantly kept up to date and that my needs were met. Throughout he acted in my best interests, seeking to pre-empt situations before they arose and entered into careful negotiations, using his extensive skills to secure the very best outcome for me on the day. I am very grateful to Mr Lee and to Sills and Betteridge for appointing him to act on my behalf. I am confident that I received the best representation I could have had.

I worked with Dominic on a complex international child support case, and he was absolutely brilliant. I have no reservations about recommending anyone for his services. He worked his magic on my case; I have nicknamed him Dominic the magician. Thanks Dominic; you have my absolute respect.

Dominic Lee took on my family case at very short notice and was the only solicitor that informed me of an appeal route In order to get my child returned back home from a stay with his father. This was such an anxious time for me and Mr Lee was in regular contact and prioritised the case. His knowledge and professionalism was outstanding and if it wasn’t for him I’d still be sat here waiting on a normal court hearing date. Highly recommend and cannot thank enough.

I was met a court by Dominic Lee. Having never experienced this situation before I was very nervous and didn’t know what to expect. Dominic explained everything to my Mother & Myself and definitely put both our minds at rest. Dominic was very polite, friendly and very professional. I would HIGHLY recommend. Thank you very much.
